Chancellor

Lyrics for Chancellor

Seconds from pajamas, I must First open all the doors and the windows And invite the vampire in To be one of us Then, in the guise of cool air In the softer hours, he's there Sitting, talking in the voice of your mother About leaving one good party for another And in the night of a thousand missteps And the loss that made him dogged Or it could've been the doggedness That 'caused the loss in the first place, I guess I'm discovering uses for you I thought I'd never find I could've made chancellor without you on my mind Crazy daisies and wooden stars The threat of oxygen on Mars Marching armies in the night Smiling strangers riding by on bikes Children smoking, sloganeers on mics Just a few things most vampires don't like I'm discovering uses for you I thought I'd never find I could've made chancellor without you on my mind Before the dawning's first light, I must First close up all the doors and the windows And try and trap that cool air in To be one with us I'm discovering uses for you I thought I'd never find I could've made chancellor without you on my mind
